Mother's Day Texting Surges: 3 Texts Per Call on AT&T Network

A new AT&T study analyzing Mother's Day activity on its network found that 75% of users texted their moms, with about three texts sent for every one phone call. The data, drawn from Mother's Day 2025 activity, shows Houston, San Antonio, and Chicago as the top cities for reaching out, and notes that Gen Z is the most likely to text daily. The study suggests texting has become a quick, personal way families stay connected on Mother’s Day.
